Katana(UTML/STML/HTML) #4 calculation example For SPEED sintering schedule parameter

PLEASE NOTE: must choose the 90min zirconia material for speed sintering, NOT a normail 6-7 hrs sintering time material for speed sintering.
we don't recommended normal 6-7 hours sintering materils for Speed 90min sintering.
Also, EACH zirconia materils have original firing schdule, please follow the original schedule by transform to Zircom machine schdule

Fast Cycle (Total time = 90 minuites)


Original program
Temp.1 increase ℃/min Temp.2 increase ℃/min Temp.3 increase ℃/min Temp.4 Hold time Decrase ℃/min Temp.5
90min Room temp 50℃/min 1400℃ 4℃/min 1500℃ 10℃/min 1560℃ 16min 50℃/min 800℃

Transfer to Zircom SPEED with Carbon tray Firing programing calculate example
Step 1 1400℃-20℃(room temp)=1380℃
1380÷50℃/min=27.6(28min)
Thus,  Step 1 1400℃  Time 00:28

Step 2 1500℃-1400℃=100℃
100÷4℃/min=25(25min)
Thus,  Step 2 1555℃  Time 00:25

Step 3 1560℃-1500℃=60℃
60÷10℃/min=6(6min)
Thus,  Step 3 1560℃  Time 00:06

Step 4 1560℃ Hold Time 16min

Step 5 1560℃-800℃=760℃ Cooling time


760÷50℃/min=15.2(15min)
Thus,  Step 5 800℃  Time 00:15 Table position 3 (eg)   Also, Zircom has auto table down programmed when it reached 400℃

NOTE:Zircom SPEED has both type of trays, Ceramic and Carbon.


As a parameter,Above 5 hours sintering use for Ceraminc tray,
Under 5hours sintering use for Carbon tray.
KDF do not recommended Speed sintering for regular Zircom machine.
Also, KDF can sell the Speed firing carbon tray for Zircom Speed machine holder only.

Only Zircom SPEED programing for Very Quick Cooling. Manual page 12
Caution: The quick firing stand and the muffle will be HOT.
Be sure use the tong and heat-resistant glove when placing the firing tray
onto the quick firing stand.

Please ask more detail to the Kanatna (Noritake) company individually.


We KDF have just provide a sample schedule calculation only.
